Beatin' clothes on the rocks here. Had a real nasty storm pass through downtown a bit ago, just in time for the HOF start up parade! Doubt if it went off as scheduled. Wife's Facebook had entries about light poles down up there Down here we got zip nada at that point, a sprinkle is going on here now

We hit 105 here today. The valley is forecast for 110+ last time I checked.

Did end up going fishing last night, though. Interesting story about that. We were using some new rubber worms, trying to catch a couple bass, and I got a hit. The fish got off and took my bait, so we kept casting there for a while, then decided to move to a different part of the pond. We got there and on the third cast my younger brother catches one. We get it in the boat, and as I'm pulling the hook out of his mouth, he coughed up my worm.

"James shook his head and twirled his Colt into it's holster with a smile. There was some coffee left in the pot, so he poured it in his cup and leaned against the wall by the door. The sun was setting in the distance, creating a beautiful sunset. “Texas has better sunsets.” He heard Terri say next to him. He turned to face her. “Of course it does. But we gotta get what we can in the mean time.” He said with a lopsided grin. She smiled back and pulled her Colt, stuffing the barrel into his belly. “Yer' getting slow. Better work on that.” She said and walked back into the house with the empty coffee pot. “We saw that, y' know.” Clint Rounds said laughing. James turned red and tried to hide his embarrassment."

I was told recently that I'm "livelier than a one-legged man at a butt-kicking contest." Is that an insult or a compliment?

The wife is now on her way back from Milwaukee, but will have to brave 110 in Phoenix before heading on to our balmy 95. She probably won’t even work up a sweat, as the layover is only 50 minutes. On second thought you can work up a sweat running between gates!

Back home! No problems with car, weather was mostly great. Picked up some sweet corn and some rib eye's when we went through town, cooking now. Garden prospered while we were gone, I guess it must have rained at least once while we were gone. Picked about 10 gallons of cucumbers, so I'll be making pickles tomorrow, as well as mowing the grass jungle. And pick and can beans, if they're dry enough to pick tomorrow, it showered just before we got home. Don't have to be at work until Saturday.

'Tis 67 and cloudy. "Humid. Partly sunny. A slight chance of showers and thunderstorms in the morning...Then showers and thunderstorms likely in the afternoon. Highs in the middle 80s. Light and variable wind becoming west around 5 mph in the afternoon. Chance of rain 60 percent."

Up at 0530 today, though that doesn't mean I'm happy about it. I'm starting to get up that early to train myself for when I have to get up early in another time zone. However, neither the family nor the canine understand what it means to be quiet before 10:30.

PE, we usually don't have any, but my mother bought four pounds this month to use a pound each week for sandwiches and potato soup, but it got put in the back of the freezer, and then she told me to cook it all last night.

In other news, My backside is reminding me that it has been a while since I sat upon a saddle. Went out to do some riding before I leave. But, even with the semi-bruised buttocks it was more enjoyable than the alternative: washing dishes.

'Tis 64 and overcast. "Cooler. Cloudy. Periods of showers in the morning...Then scattered showers and a slight chance of thunderstorms in the afternoon. Highs in the lower 70s. Northeast wind 10 to 15 mph. Chance of rain 80 percent."

Per my cellular device, it is 87 in town. Per my porch thermometer, it is 100. I'm inclined to agree with the porch.

Canned 11 quarts of beans, there's more out there, but it rained about 2pm, just when I was going out to pick. There were a lot that got too mature while we were gone, so had to shell some, would have been a lot more otherwise. Will deal with the cucumbers this evening.
